    3If what was stolen is found alive in his possession, whether it is an ox, a donkey, or a sheep, he must pay back double.

    4If a man lets his animal graze in another's field or vineyard, and it feeds there, he must repay with the best of his own field or vineyard.

    5If a fire breaks out and catches on thorn bushes so that a stack of grain, standing grain, or a field is destroyed, the one who started the fire must make full compensation.

    7If the thief is not found, the owner of the house must present himself before God to determine whether he has taken his neighbor’s property.

    8In all cases of dishonest dealings, whether involving an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or anything lost that someone claims to be theirs, both parties must present their cases before God. The one whom God condemns must pay back double to the other.

    9If a man gives his neighbor a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to take care of, and it dies, is injured, or is driven away while no one is watching,

    10the issue between them will be settled by an oath before the Lord that the neighbor has not taken the other’s property. The owner must accept this, and no restitution is required.

    13If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies when its owner is not present, he must make restitution.

    14If the owner is with the animal, the borrower does not need to pay. If it was rented, the payment covers the loss.

    15If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride price for her and make her his wife.
